Hi there,
My I-485 was filed in Jun, 2018 through my previous employer but my new manager fired me with my last date of Sept 30th. I had found new job in same role and joined the new employer on Oct 1st with H1b transfer. Now my AOS interview got scheduled by USCIS for Nov 1st week, which is less than 180 days for pending I-485 (Dec 10th) . Is there a way for me to explain USCIS my situation and get my green card approved during the interview ? Will getting my interview postponed, so it crosses 180 days will help?
Please advise.

I have job with new employer before I received EAD. New Employer B had filed my H!b transfer back in July 2018 with premium , which had RFE. Finally was approved in Sept 2018. My last day with Previous employer and First day with New employer was Oct 1st 2018. So i have not been out of job or out of H1b for single day. I have not used EAD. But I did receive EAD on Oct first week.
I have consultation phone call with an immigration attorney today.

I got my EAD/AP card 2 weeks ago.
Question 1: Since pending AOS is less than 180 days , can my new employer not file 485J to my this case? Can I convince my new employer to file 485J ?
Question 2: Will get the interview postpone ,so that interview happens after 180 days have crossed help?
Question 3: Will hiring lawyer help my current AOS? How? Who do I contact to hire a lawyer for my case? Will s/he be able to accompany me for the interview in Seattle?

Employ
er A - Filed I-485 (June 13th 2018). Manager changed - Got fired by Employer A
H1b transfer to Employer B and Joind new employer on Oct 1st
AOS interview scheduled with USCIS on Nov 8th
Since the interview is before i-485 was pending for less than 180 days of filing and i had to change employer before 180 days was complete with previous employer. Should I postpone the interview ,so that it is after 180 days of AOS filing.
Immigration attorney from the new employer Bis not filing 485-j since 180 days has not completed for the AOS filing of employer A. They are rather restarting the whole green card process again.
